The Search For The Next Steve Jobs

Iria · Jan 11, 2009, 10:35 PM

The real issue here, and the one that Apple has failed to address in any meaningful way, is the question of succession. Who is the heir apparent? No one knows. And that's a problem. Some speculate that it might be Tim Cook, Apple's chief operating officer, who ran the company while Jobs was on leave to recover from his cancer surgery several years ago. Other possibilities for the post include Jonathan Ive, Apple's visionary head of design, and Phil Schiller, who runs the marketing arm.
